Ronald Robinson's attorney says his client's murder trial should be moved out of Allegheny County because prosecutors there released a statement saying the officer's family had rejected a plea agreement.

The district attorney's office said last week that Robinson had offered to plead guilty to two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Penn Hills police Officer Michael Crawshaw and another man.

Authorities say Robinson killed Danyal Morton over a drug debt then shot Crawshaw as he pulled up in front of Morton's house in December 2009.
